It's always better to avoid problems than to fix them. So rather than fret
over who has the best waranty, buy the brand that is the most reliable so
you won't ahve to worry about getting it fixed.
The 2004 Consumer Reports annual buying guide just hit the newsstands and
they report reader experiences for reliability of various type of
appliances.Usually, many thousands of readers rate them so the scores are
pretty good..
